Tracey worked from home yesterday so we could work on the narration of her PowerPoint slides again. We had a devil of a time getting a particular slide to advance automatically without several seconds of delay.

Some time on the Internet revealed this is a rampant problem with the latest versions of the software. #Microsoft is aware of the problem but has done nothing to fix it for the past three years because they evidently think it is a user problem. I get so sick of dealing with all the bugs in their malware.

I read in several different forums where the common user fix is to go back to PowerPoint 2007. Go figure. Unfortunately Tracey doesn’t have that option; she is stuck with the latest version whether it works or not.

Tracey finally fixed it after hours of messing around by changing a voice transition parameter that has no obvious connection to the slide and is completely different than all of the other slides which work correctly. Hopefully it will work with the dozen or so previous versions of PowerPoint that don’t seem at all compatible.

I hate Microsoft.

I’ve pretty much given up on the Kangaroo Court process going on with the Senate right now. It has been clear from the start that this was not going to be an actual hearing of facts but merely a rubber stamp charade to install a judge that would exonerate Agolf.

What disturbs me even more is the number of people who evidently believe this jerk tried to rape a woman but excuse it for any number of ridiculous reasons. They aren’t denying it happened, only that she should have reported it sooner, etc. Scum of the Earth.
